Lyrics
Eight Dead Boys
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sit right down if you're a friend
You know there ain't too many left of them
You said I want love, I want it all
Well you look better now than last time
But you still look better from afar
The life that you wanted was not in store
You're gonna be in rhythm once again
Hello, Hello
Hello, My Love (x3)
You stop your moaning and they'll give you a taster
they'll give you a line, and they'll call you a waster
So don't!
You say you will and you won't
either you do or you don't
you Do or you don't (x3)
You look better now than the last time
Still no better than before
The life that you wanted was not in store
You're gonna be in rhythm once again
Hello, Hello
Hello, My Love (x3)
When it suits you, you're a friend of mine (x15)
You look better now than the last time
Still no better than before
The life that you wanted was not in store
Be in rhythm once again
You look better now than the last time
Still look better from afar
The life that you wanted was not in store
Gonna be in rhythm once again
Oh my love
